None of the Logan pictures or manuals I have seen show this type of carriage clutch. Can anyone tell me anything about it? Thanks

Hi T.W.,
I've owned a couple of Logans and none ever had a clutch lever like the one you have. Looks like someone might have adapted it from another machine (just my thought).

The Logan "automatic apron" has a series of disks in its feed clutch.
Either a rotary motion, produced by the more familiar fluted knob, or a cam action, produced by a lever, shown above, would accomplish the same effect in bringing the two sets of disks into contact.

TW I was at a machinery dealer in Miami to look at a Logan lathe Model 1957 Ser #66469 it had that same type clutch. Do you have any idea what vintage your machine is, and where to find parts , the one for sale was REAL ROUGH. Thanks
